Secretory breast carcinoma of a 10-years old boy:a case report
Background Breast carcinoma is very rare in childhood,accounting for less than 1% of all childhood malignancies and is especially rare in boys.Secretory breast carcinoma (SBC) is the commonest type of breast carcinoma in children.Methods This is a case report of a 10 years old boydiagnosed to have SBC.In this article,we discuss the diagnosis and treatment options for SBC,based on a literature review.Results Microscopic examination revealed the classical features of secretory carcinoma with a microcystic pattern with abundant intra and extracellular PAS-positive secretory material.Immunohistochemically,tumor cells were positive for S-100,negative for ER,PR and HER2.Surgery is regarded as the primary treatment of SBC,including local ression (conservative surgery),simple mastectomy and mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy or level Ⅱ axillary lymph node dissection.Conclusions SBC is a low-malignant breast tumor,and it has a good prognosis.Surgery is the primary treatment of SBC,but there is no published guideline for surgical treatment.The methods of surgical treatment and the role of adjuvant therapy,particularly for young patients,remain controversial.
